Patent attributes
Several aspects of the present technology are directed toward fan-out packaged semiconductor devices having an integrated shield to protect against electromagnetic interference and methods of manufacturing such devices. The shield can be constructed by forming a conductive wall on a redistribution structure and disposing a conductive cap on an upper surface of an encapsulant. The conductive wall and the conductive cap are electrically connected to each other. By forming the conductive wall directly on the redistribution structure and separately disposing the conductive cap onto an upper surface of the encapsulant, an electromagnetic shield can be readily formed using wafer-level or panel-level processing techniques that are efficient and cost-effective. Several embodiments of semiconductor devices in accordance with the present technology accordingly shield the integrated circuitry of semiconductor dies from electromagnetic interference.
